They don't have to optimize specifically for the competitor's chip, as Intel compiler still produces probably the fastest binaries for AMD machines. Any general optimizations (P2, P3, and even P4 optimizations (excluding SSE2 stuff or whatever)) are just as helpful for AMD processors as they are for Intel ones.
